portland somehow time
There's something really easy and just somehow un-crowded about the Portland airport. Every time I go there I'm like, 'Why is this so easy and sweet?'
kind
Just a lot of those bands [like The Blue Jean Committee] started off in blues, and then they all transformed into other kinds.
aging
like an aging Pete Townshend kind of guy.
funny-graduation guarantees way
Remember that there's no one way of doing things. ... If you just get a hammer and hit it really hard, whatever it is, I guarantee you it'll open.
someday south
Someday maybe I'll go back and see what the Deep South is like.
relax stuff not-happy
I can't relax. I'm not happy unless I'm working on stuff. 'SNL' is always a huge workload, as enjoyable as it is.
nice proud kind
Chalkboards being used inside the restaurant seem to be a good sign that the proprietors are proud of their food, and that's kind of nice, actually - it's a nice personal touch.
nice night people
I love 'Saturday Night Live,' and I really feel like people who have left before me have always stayed with the show. They never really quite left, which is nice. Everyone kind of stays close.
missing soldier sound
I don't miss anything ever. Because to me, missing something is like going backward a little bit. I don't miss being in a punk band. For me, 'SNL' is like... this is gonna sound overly dramatic, but... the way I am, it feels like I'm a soldier, so it was like, 'What do you want me to do? Put me anywhere. Do you want me to do these sketches? Great.'
divorce two lucky
Everyone goes through all kinds of relationship situations. I'm lucky that I get to be on two comedy shows [during divorce].
nice names people
People are always nice, so I can't complain. My name used to be SNL! More and more, people call me by my name.
thrive
I thrive most when I have to juggle things.
exactly looks met tony
I've met Tony Danza. He was really nice. And he looks... I feel like he hasn't aged. He looks exactly the same. He's just Tony Danza. He's exactly the same as he's always been.
corey good people record touch
There are people who are genetically made to start record labels, and I'm not one of those people. People just have it in their blood and are good at it. Corey Rusk from Touch and Go and Ian MacKaye. These are people who have made their own labels.
